    I couldn’t possibly tell you how many sets of wired headphones I’ve had to throw out in my life because of frayed/broken cables. Those things are e-waste too.

      You are buying shitty headphones if you cant detach or otherwise repair the cables. The cables are just copper & some casing which is hardly e-waste & the rest is a magnet housed in plastic/resin. There isn’t lithium production for a battery or other rare minerals for a microchip.
